Glyphosate & Autism: Scientist Explains The Indisputable Link & Foods That Reverse Autism Symptoms
In Brief
- The Facts:Stephanie
Seneff is a Senior Research Scientist at the MIT Computer Science &
Artificial
Intelligence Lab. Over the past several years her research has shifted to focusing on glyphosate. Here she gives a lecture on glyphosate as it relates to autism. - Reflect On:How are products made with glyphosate approved as safe? Have our federal health regulatory agencies been compromised at the expense of human health?
Stephanie
Seneff, a PhD from MIT University, studies glyphosate, the active
ingredient in the pervasive herbicide known as Roundup that’s made by
Monsanto, the massive agrochemical giant that was recently purchased by
Bayer pharmaceuticals. Dr. Seneff and many other scientists from around
the world have published several papers outlining the very clear and
very obvious dangers that glyphosate poses to human and environmental
health. Not only do we have a wealth of data, but there are also numerous court cases (more
than 10,000 pending) that have ruled in favour of the people, linking
glyphosate with causing cancer. On top of that, we also have information
showing the extreme corruption that exists within these corporations in
conjunction with our federal health regulatory agencies that allow
substances containing glyphosate to be on the market. This type of
corruption is worldwide. For example, the substance was recently
relicensed and approved by European Parliament. However, MEPs found the
science given to them was plagiarized, full of industry science written by Monsanto.

Glyphosate has been used extensively
both as an herbicide and a crop desiccant. It’s highly pervasive in our
food supply and is found in many non-organic foods. For example, the non
profit group Moms Across America recently discovered glyphosate was present in several popular orange juice brands across America. It’s been found in many popular foods, especially those marketed to children.
Dr. Seneff explains that autism as well
as many other neurological diseases begin in the gut, with the
disruption of the gut microbiome being a key initiating event in these
diseases. In fact, the idea and evidence that autism starts in the gut
has been published for decades and reported on by media for the same
amount of time. Here is one of the latest examples, but more keep emerging every year.
Here’s a great quote from a recent study published regarding the role of the gut micro-biome in autism:
The gut microbiota is believed to play a pivotal role in human health and disease through involvement in physiological homoeostasis, immunological development, glutathione metabolism, amino acid metabolism, etc., which in a reasonable way explain the role of gut-brain axis in autism. Branded as a neurodevelopmental disorder with psychiatric impairment and often misclassified as a mental disorder, many experts in the field think that a therapeutic solution to autism is unlikely to emerge. (source)
Dr. Seneff’s research has shown that
glyphosate disrupts the gut microbiome, and that it “also disrupts
peristalsis and the digestion of proteins and fats. Undigested proteins
induce a leaky gut barrier and subsequently a leaky brain barrier.
Autoimmune attack on the myelin sheaths impairs nerve fibers and
disrupts neuron communication channels. Impaired sulfation and
methylation pathways, common in autism, can be explained through
glyphosate’s insidious, cumulative toxic effects acting as an analogue
of the coding amino acid glycine.” (taken from video presentation below)

A Very Informative Lecture That Goes Further Into Detail
In the lecture below, Dr. Seneff goes into great detail regarding her research, and explains foods that can potentially help to detoxify the body of glyphosate and other toxic chemicals and potentially help reverse some of the symptoms of autism.Her Autism Presentations From 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018 and 2019.

The Takeaway
Those of you who have been involved in the past in the battle to protect our children from poorly made vaccines or toxic chemicals in our food or in our water know the power of these industries and how they’ve undermined every institution in our democracy that is supposed to protect little children from powerful, greedy corporations. Even the pharmaceutical companies have been able to purchase congress. They’re the largest lobbying entity in Washington D.C.. They have more lobbyists in Washington D.C. than there are congressman and senators combined. They give twice to congress what the next largest lobbying entity is, which is oil and gas… Imagine the power they exercise over both republicans and democrats. They’ve captured them (our regulatory agencies) and turned them into sock puppets. They’ve compromised the press… and they destroy the publications that publish real science. – Robert F. Kennedy Jr. (source)
At the end of the day, regardless of how substances like glyphosate get into our food or are allowed in our products, it’s us
who are using them. This is why awareness is key because WE can choose
to stop spraying our lawns, WE can choose to eat organic food, and WE
are the ones who need to stop using these products to put them out of
business.
